Hacking USB Loader v1.4 with cIOS rev10 Freezing

[antiaverage]

I'm using a Wii with version 3.2U with HBC Loaded, but no preloader ever used

cIOS 36 rev9 and USB Loader v1.1 work great

cIOS 36 rev10 and USB Loader v1.4 freezes after selecting a game
it says Loading Wii game, please wait... and sticks that way for >10 minutes

Rolling back to cIOS 36 rev9 and USB Loader v1.1 gets me back up and running

any thoughts?

I'd love to use v1.4 but it seems I'm stuck...

SOLVED: The cIOS rev10 was released twice, the two versions being released about two hours apart... If you are having the above trouble, then you simply were quick and snagged the first version which was taken down and replaced by the latest version which works. Just go back to Waninkoko's blog and download the latest cIOS rev10. The file inside the zip should have last been modified on April 12, 2009 at 3:10am (my system is set to EST) or thereabouts.

make sure its the updated cios 36 rev 10 cause he did release a buggy one.

I dont see the reason to be at rev 10. It doesnt really make a difference anyway. v1.4 is just like any other mod of 1.1 so no big deal.

did you download your cios36 rev 10 when it was first posted. If so delete it and redownload it. The first version had problems.

It just looks like your hard drive and cIOSrev10 don't mix. Might have to wait for cIOS11 for a fix. For now, to avoid the deletion bug, only delete though your pc using a WBFS Manager that has the fix implemented.

If the cios36 rev 9 is working for you, I would look to use the Ultimate USB Loader v6 for 1.1. It has the WBFS fix so deleting games is no longer and issue and adding games is still quick with that version.

I got the cIOS rev 10 from here:
http://www.teknoconsolas.es/blog/waninkoko...om-ios36-rev-10

It seems to be the latest. No dice. Any other thoughts?

I recompiled the Sorg mod1.11 loader with the modified libwbfs (it was only 2 lines to edit) and I'm fine as far as that goes.

Thanks everyone for your help, I hope this post leads other people in the right direction as well.

Done and done:

This is the forwarder channel I use for it:

Thank you very much. this is great for those who are having troubles with usbloader 1.1.

I'll make an embedded channel with it right away as well (i'll give you credit for wnfs fixing sorg's 1.1 mod)

sometimes. It tends to screw things up sometimes, and I am forced to do them by hand.

If you get the time, could you go through the "by hand" method with me? Injecting dol files into wad files is not something I have learned yet and everyone points me to WADder which seems like a horrible kludge.

loader 1.4 has the fix, i noticed it in the source while i was looking for something else.

Oh, thanks, but I knew that. I was saying that because he couldn't use 1.4.

well, it would take quite some time to make an FAQ, but I can point you at a guide. Just make sure you have something on your wii to protect yourself against banner bricks, cause when I was learning good lord I bricked my wii several times, lol.

Unfortunately, I've read that page before and it still relies on Windows tools. I was hoping for a method I could perform using only a hex editor or something similar.
